5.With one of my best friends overseas at the moment,enjoying romance in Costa Rica,the job of looking after her dog has fallen to me.A few months ago,Missy came to my friend's house at the request of a local vet,and she has been abused during her brief life.
When we first visited my friend and Missy,my friend had to gently pull her over on a lead to get her to come to us.We waited about ten minutes while Missy ran back and forth,wanting to come but being terrified to do so,each step coming closer,then running away,and then coming another step closer.Once she was within reach of our hands,she allowed affection and received completely.In fact,once we began,there was no getting rid of her.She could not get enough of it.Even so,she would be weak in her hind legs,scared to stand full height,still showing signs of where she had been beaten and hurt,half expecting to be yelled at or beaten-the poor,beautiful thing.
Obviously Missy came to the right home.My friend has given birth to a baby of her own and shows the loving mother energy without effort.This is just what Missy has needed.In the couple of months since I first met this lovely dog she has,step by step,evolved into a new dog,thanks to the love of my friend.Sadly,there are still signs of her injuries.She still does her dance of running away before coming forward with most people.
I have also just discovered that Missy has some injury associated with cameras or some kind of equipment.Each time I took my camera out to take a photo of her,she ran away,very frightened.So for the sake of her wellbeing over her vanity(自負(fù)) I will settle for the first photo I took before she ran from the camera.
Over the last two weeks,my bond with Missy has strengthened daily,with long walks,lots of affection,and the most communicative eye contact a dog could ever offer.She is a beautiful soul and what that dear dog must have gone through,I hate to imagine.In quiet times together,Missy now trusts me enough to roll over completely,so I can rub her belly.When standing,she will jump up ever so gently to be closer to me,putting her paws on my legs as she looks at me with those beautiful eyes.And for the first time since I've known her,I now see her tail wag regularly as she runs around the yard with me,or whenever I speak with her.
Missy is the most courageous,trusting soul I have known for a long time.Despite the effects of the hurt she has once suffered before,she has dared to trust again,to allow love in,and to realize that not everyone is like the people she used to meet.The unconditional love that dogs give to their companions is a great lesson for us all the best of times.But seeing Missy's courage in trying to trust again,I think she plays the role of a gentle teacher as well.When she dares to trust again,she does not know what lies ahead.Simply what she needs is to try to trust again,in order to allow love in and for her own happiness.If only all the people of the world who are carrying injure and fear from former hurts had the courage of Missy to try again,to open their hearts,and to know that not everyone they are meeting or will meet are the same kinds of people as before.Keep it in mind that tomorrow is another day.
